Do you wanna build a similar to a production-style Apple Wallet system that turns health insurance into a real-time, Live Activity-powered digital experience — updated via APNs, event-driven backend, and Stripe-triggered workflows.
This is not a UI demo — it’s a full backend system design for real-world wallet-based experiences.
Traditional health insurance systems are static, fragmented, and disconnected from real-time user experience.
Users don’t know:
Coverage status in real-time
Claim updates instantly
Appointment lifecycle status
This project solves that using Apple Wallet + Live Activities + event-driven architecture.
I designed and built a system that connects:
Stripe payments → insurance activation
Backend APIs → policy generation
Apple Wallet (.pkpass) → digital identity
APNs → real-time updates
Live Activities → session-based tracking
Event scheduler → state transitions
Key Features (Make this VERY structured)
📱 Apple Wallet Integration
Dynamic .pkpass generation
Secure signing + pass lifecycle management
Wallet-based identity layer
🔔 Real-Time Updates (APNs)
Push-triggered pass refresh system
No direct data push — Apple pull-based update model
⏱️ Live Activities System
Session-based lifecycle tracking
State transitions:
Scheduled → Active → In Progress → Completed
Mid-session override support
💳 Payment & Activation Flow
Stripe webhook → backend orchestration
Auto-activation of insurance coverage
⚙️ Backend Architecture
Event-driven system design
Serverless APIs (Vercel)
Background scheduling (Inngest/Cron)

Recently working on implementing a UPI payment module in FinTech iOS app (JUMPP)
On the surface, payments seem like a small part of the app.
In reality, it’s one of the most critical because it directly affects trust with the App.
While creating such App, The experience should be feel controlled for its user within the application while still handling real transaction states in the background.
That changes the complexity completely. Because now it’s not just about triggering a payment it’s about managing what happens before, during, and after the transaction.
My focus during this work wasn’t just “adding UPI” it was making sure the flow actually works in real-world usage.
This involved:
• Handling smooth app-switch flow between UPI apps, government and bank rails and the iOS app
• Managing different transaction states with records across the switches (success, pending, failed)
During the development of such a vast module; One thing became very clear:
Even small inconsistencies here can lead to failed transactions or lost users.
I’ll be sharing a few specific challenges and patterns I noticed while working on this especially around where UPI flows tend to break in real-world
Keep connecting for series of UPI with me.
I spend most of my time turning ideas into real products — usually with React, Node, and a lot of problem-solving in between.
I like clean UIs, simple logic, and things that just work without overcomplicating everything.
More than anything, I enjoy working with people who are excited about what they’re building. The kind of projects where it feels less like a task and more like creating something meaningful together.
If that sounds like your vibe, feel free to reach out. We’ll figure it out from there.
Really like how clean and engaging this feels. If someone wanted to reach this level, what would you say makes the biggest difference in your process?
